Kenny Chesney: Some People Change
His old man was a rebel yeller
Bad boy to the bone he'd say
"Can't trust a colored feller"
He'd judge 'em by the tone of their skin
He was raised to think to think like his dad
Narrow-minded; full of hate
On the road to nowhere fast
'Til the grace of God got in the way
Then saw the light, hit his knees, cried, and said a prayer
Rose up a brand-new man
Left the old one right there
Chorus:
Here's to the strong
Thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope
Some people change
Against all odds
Against the grade
Love finds a way
Some people change
She was born with her mother's habit
Guess you could say it's in her blood
She hates it that she's gotta have it
She fills her glass up
She'd love to kill that bottle
But all she could think about is a
Better life,a second chance,
And everyone she's lettin' down
She throws that bottle down!
Chorus:
Here's to the strong
Thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope
Some people change
Against all odds
Against the grade
Love finds a way
Some people change
Thank God for those who make it!
Let them be the light!
(Some people change)
Chorus:
Here's to the strong
Thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope
Some people change
Against all odds
Against the grade
Love finds a way
Some people change
